THE HANNUKKAH SONG
(Ian Maxtone-Graham / L. Morton / Adam Sandler)

Adam Sandler - 1996


INTRO: This is a song, that uh, there's a lot of Christmas songs out
there, but not too many about Hanukkah. So I wrote a song for all
those nice little Jewish kids who dont get to hear any Hanukkah
songs. Here we go.....

Put on your yalmulka, here comes Hanukkah
It's so much fun-akkah to celebrate Hanukkah

Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights
Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights

When you feel like the only kid in town without a Christmas tree
Heres a list of people who are Jewish, just like you and me

David Lee Roth lights the menorrah
So do James Caan, Kirk Douglas, and the late Dinah Shore-ah

Guess who eats together at the Karnickey Deli
Bowzer from Sha-na-na, and Arthur Fonzerrelli

Paul Newman's half Jewish, Goldie Hawn's half too
Put them together, what a fine lookin' Jew!

You dont need Deck the Halls or Jingle Bell Rock
Cause you can spin the dreidl with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock, both
Jewish!

Put on your yalmulka, its time for Hanukkah
The owner of the Seattle Supersonic-ahs celebrates Hanukkah

O.J. Simpson, not a Jew!
But guess who is, Hall of Famer Rod Carew, he converted!

We got Ann Landers and her sister Dear Abby
Harrison Ford's a quarter Jewish, not too shabby!

Some people think that Ebeneezer Scrooge is
Well, he's not, but guess who is, all three stooges

So many Jews are in show biz
Tom Cruise isn't, but I heard his agent is

Tell your friend Veronica, it's time you celebrate Hanukkah
I hope I get a harmonica, on this lovely, lovely Hanukkah

So drink your gin-and-tonic-ah, and smoke your marajuanic-ah,
If you really, really wanna-kah
Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Hanukkah


THE HANUKKAH SONG - PART 2

Time to take out those menorahs!
Put on your yalmulka, it's time for Hanukkah
So much fun-uka to celebrate Hanukkah

Hanukkah is, the festival of lights
Instead of one day of presents, we get eight crazy nights

When you feel like the only kid in town without a Christmas tree
Here's a new list of people who are Jewish just like you and me

Winona Ryder drinks Manashevits' wine
Then spins a dredl with Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein

Guess who give and receives loads of Hanukkah toys?
The girls from Barukasouhl and all three Beastie Boys

Lenny Kravitz is half Jewish, Courtney Love is half too
Put them together, what a funky, bad-ass Jew

We got Harvey Keitel and flashdancer Jennifer Beals
Yasmine Bleeth from Baywatch is Jewish and yes, her boobs are real

O.J. Simpson, still not a Jew
But guess who is, the guy who does the voice for Scooby-Doo

Bob Dylan was born a Jew, then he wasn't, but now he's back
Mary Tyler Moore's husband is Jewish 'cuz we're pretty good in the
sack

Guess who got bar mitzvah-ed on the PGA tour?
No, I'm not talking about Tiger Woods, I'm talking about Mister Happy
Gilmore

So many Jews are in the show-biz
Bruce Springsteen isn't Jewish, but my Mother thinks he is

Tell that old harmonica, it's time to celebrate Hanukkah
It's not pronounced Chanukkah, the C is silent in Hanukkah

So your your Hooked on Phonic-a, get drunk in Teawonica
If you really really wanna-kah
Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Hanukkah
